(Are You Gonna Leave Me)

thanks all

Dan

dunno but wish i had one

Absolutely superb sune

sold mine last year for £1000

the gasher

Thanks both.

A copy in Japan went unsold on ebay (twice) for $1000. As you say, a brilliant record.

comparisons with the arcades?

i love them both

not to mention to impressions of course

a thousand times better than Arcades for me, though I do like both.

would have had the copy of Jesse James coming from Japan at that price. Gareth can you get me a link to the item so I can contact the seller please?

wouldn't say 1000 times but agree it's better

backing track ripped off from the impressions though, right?

which Impressions?

Billy, the link to the Japanese seller is gone, it was more than six months ago. The Impressions track it shares a similarity to is "I'm The One Who Loves You", also done in fine style by Jerry Butler on VeeJay.

I personally think the Jesse James is by far the best of any of these records, and I'd love a copy too. I think I'm correct in saying it's the last release on Shirley, hence its rarity.

Jerry Butler is a brilliant cheap alternative & one that i've been spinning at SITC for last 6 months on & off, much superior to the Impressions IMO, but the Jesse James I must agree is the mutts wotsits! (wish I had one)

A record I'd walk over hot coals for contains the great line " make me a beggar or make me a king " Pure class

A truly boring and super-average record, as is the Arcades, and as for it sounding similar to I'm The One Who Loves You, it's exactly the same! If thats worth £1000 then the Impressions must be priceless.

You Stafford lovers, you make me laugh.

We talked about this at the last Wilton - One of the Aycliffe lads walked off the floor with me , shook it his head and uttered the words "Perfection" and it is

I think you are wrong Gareth. First there was a copy from an american that sold for around $1800 to a well known UK DJ, the japanese seller obviously saw that and put his copy up at $1500 and despite being in better condition than the previous one, it did not sell. He then put it up at $1200 and then it sold with one bid from another well known UK DJ. Maybe there was another copy from Japan up twice recently, but I really don't think so. I'd say the price is in the range of £600 - £1000 with £1000 being expensive. When Manship last had it he got around £860. Tim Brown auctioned one on someone's behalf some time back but he did not even get £700 which was the minimum bid. A friend of mine over here recently bought a copy on ebay (properly listed under R&B and with complete scans/titles etc.) for the massive sum of $53. Yes, it is true, I was not too happy since I like it myself and during those few days I did not watch ebay it goes for $53! I'll probably read what I wrote written by someone else in a couple of days since no one ever reads what I write, but now you know, if you read, but I guess you won't...

no one ever reads what I write

yes we do you nutter

very informative ta (don't suppose your friend want to sell his $53 copy??)

I think he really likes it so I guess not. I e-mailed the seller (of the $53 copy) and offered 'a bit more' in case they should have or find another copy, never got a reply. I was also in touch with the japanese record dealer about trading for the copy that eventually went for $1200 (soon to be seen on an auction near you? ) and he only had the one copy. Too hot to type over here almost, phew.

Thanks for clarifying this Christian. I know the Japanese one went unsold once, and was watching it until nearly the bitter end when it was re-listed, and it was still bidless. On reflection the rice was about right. This has never really been a cheap record (apart from your friend's good fortune, that is).

Anyway, I musn't go over the top in praising this record too much, that would merely be pretentious.

is this a deliberate pun, gareth?

Dan, you give me more credit than I deserve. Here's a soundfile for those who haven't heard it. Would welcome any feedback from those who are new to this track.

Yes that will cause a stampede to the dancefloor!

Good singer but 10th rate B side material, uninspiring and boring, as befitting those people who like it

Cheers for sticking the track up Gareth. Just brilliant.

Noticed its also available on Goldmine's Rare Soul Heaven CD, which Ive just received.

Its probably the stand out track, but there's an awful lot of other good rare soul on there.

Col.

ps Good to see you at the Rocket.

Cracking record but the Impressions bit in it should have been done for copyright!

Me and Richard are massive fans of this.

The Arcades is amazing, the Jesse James is sublime.

When Arthur Fenn played this on our radio show, we sat there astonished and simply melted into the chair. It's as perfect as a soul record can be. Pleading, passionate and lyrically and musically stunning.

Sorry Pete, pretentious or not, few come better.....

[pleasent shuffler ,

Have to disagree, lovely for gliding around the dance floor. Was played last year at the CSC. I've heard the Arcades one more out, Arthur Fenn at SHS, seem to remember it was played at Whitby, which seems wrong, but sure I danced to it.

Hadn't noticed the similarity to I'm The One Who Loves You.
